Recurring Cough
I have been suffering from recurring cough, running nose and sneezing (sometimes) since the last 4 months. I had taken an anti-biotic course earlier which had helped immensly. For 2 months, the cough was completely gone. But it has recurred since the last 2 weeks. I have taken the same anti-biotic course again but hasn't helped this time.
It is not chronic and occurs mainly at night and has been causing me to wake up in the middle of the night every day since last 5-6 days. When I take Citrizine, I feel much relieved for that day.
Also, note that I have 2 per kittens at home. Could I have developed allergy to them? If yes, what should I do? I have stopped going near them or touching them since the last week.

Hello there..... Use your air conditioner. Air conditioning reduces the amount of airborne pollen from trees, grasses and weeds that finds its way indoors... Reduce pet dander. If you're allergic to dander, avoid pets with fur or feathers. Having pets regularly bathed or groomed also may reduce the amount of dander in your surroundings....
